MSP430F5514: MSP430 not getting detected as HID on invoking BSL through software

Abhishek Veeraraghavan

Part Number: MSP430F5514
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: UNIFLASH

I want to update firmware through USB. I am trying to invoke the BSL through software as suggested in the report http://www.ti.com/lit/an/slaa452c/slaa452c.pdf After the call to invoke BSL, the host software - the Visual Studio based GUI and the Python based Firmware Upgrader aren't detecting MSP430 as a HID. If I try to halt the programmer during debugging, I get the error message: "MSP430: Trouble Halting Target CPU: Internal error". But I can halt it after a while. If I try to read the memory at 0x1000 from the memory browser I can see all 0x3FFF. However, if I read the BSL memory from the command line tool MSPFlasher it appears to be fine and looks like this:

I am not being able to use BSLScripter as it is unable to open the HID device. I can't try UART-BSL as there is a problem with the UART on the PCB I am working on. In the document on using USB for firmware updates I did read something about the XT2 clock frequency setting but I haven't been able to look into that yet and will do so at the earliest.

Here is my code:

uint08 fInvokeBsl;

void main(void)

{

WDTCTL = WDTPW|WDTHOLD; // Stop WDT

USBKEYPID = 0x9628; // Unlock the USB registers
USBPWRCTL |= VBONIE; // Enable the VBUS-on interrupt
USBPHYCTL |= PUSEL;
USBCNF |= PUR_EN;
USBKEYPID = 0x9600; // Lock the USB registers

if(fInvokeBSL)
{
__disable_interrupt();
((void (*)())0x1000)();
fInvokeBSL = 0;
}

#pragma vector=USB_UBM_VECTOR // USB Interrupt Service Routine
__interrupt void iUsbInterruptHandler(void)
{
switch (__even_in_range(USBVECINT & 0x3f, USBVECINT_OUTPUT_ENDPOINT7))
{
case USBVECINT_PWR_VBUSOn:
fInvokeBSL = 1; // Set flag
//__bic_SR_register_on_exit(LPM3_bits); // Exit LPM3 when exiting the ISR.
break;
default:
break;
}
}

I have searched a lot on this issue including multiple threads on this forum but haven't been able to find a solution. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Please let me know if any other information is needed.

Thanks in advance

[Update:] Using Uniflash I programmed the BSL with values present in the attached file. Now on connecting the USB cable to my laptop and pausing the programmer, I get the message "Break at address '0x133C' with no debug information available, or outside of program code". I am able to view the disassembly code in the disassembly window.

Hi Abhishek,

I am looking into this and will provide updates as soon as I can.

Thanks,

Mitch

Hi Mitch

Thanks a lot for your reply. I was waiting for the reply eagerly.

Here's some more information. I am not using an external crystal oscillator for XT1 or XT2, and using the default clock provided with MSP430. The hardware connections I am making are the following: (from the USB cable) +5V to VBUS, Data+ to DP, Data- to DM and Ground of the USB cable to Ground of MSP430. VUSB is connected to ground through a capacitor. PUR is connected to ground through a 1Mega-Ohm resistor. For hardware invoking of BSL, PUR needs to be pulled high, for the software invocation, is it okay if it is connected to ground?

In the meantime I will try using UART to use UART-BSL and let you know the results.

Thanks

Here's some more information from my side. There is no pull-up resistor in my circuit from the PUR pin to DP. There is also no external crystal into XT2. I think these two conditions are necessary for the working of the USB BSL.

Hi Abhishek,

Good catch. An external XTAL is required for the USB BSL. This seems to be the root of the issue:

Any luck with the UART BSL?

Thanks,

Mitch

Hi Mitch,

Trying to use UART-BSL proved to be a disaster. I tried replacing the BSL with an UART BSL for another family. It ended up locking the JTAG on my MCU and corrupting the code. I now have to throw away the IC. I am yet to figure out why it happened. I have posted a question on the same here. Could you please get somebody to look at it? I am okay with it not working but I want to understand why the JTAG got locked and the firmware got corrupted.

Thanks and Regards

Abhishek
